| I ordered the My First Piano II for my son's first birthday. They were out of the one I ordered, and after sending me the wrong one, they immediately corrected it by sending an even nicer one the next day, in time for his birthday. I was so impressed by the customer service at Schoenut...rare these days. My son loves banging on it - the sound is really good for a toy piano, and it's sturdy and attractive. I recommend the one with 25 keys instead of 18, since it will continue to be fun later on when he can actually play something. I'm also glad I ended up with the taller one, because he doesn't want to sit much now and he can play it standing. Later he can use the little bench. I very highly recommend this product! |
Very nice little piano

My 2 year old daughter received this piano for Christmas, and she loves it! It seems durable and well-made It is not a cheap junk plastic piano This piano is meant to be kept. She plays with it several times a day. Our daughter has many developmental delays and the piano is a perfect height for her and the keys have allowed to use her hands better. This was the best Christmas present she received.
All in all, I would not hesistate to buy this one. Yes it's more than the "toy" pianos, but well-worth it. |
Great Introduction to Music for Toddlers

| My two year old loves piano music, particularly Mozart and so I got this for him on Christmas and he loves it. As soon as he opened it he was just pounding away on the keys like Schroeder. The color coded note guide will definitely be handy as he gets older. In the meantime, I play the tunes for him and he does repeat the notes out loud as I play them for him. Overall, a great toy for kids with an interest in music. |
solid construction.

Solid construction. Seems to built like a real mini piano.
A warning label reads that toy is for 3+ years old due to small parts and sharp edges. |
Loves the piano!

| We bought this piano for our nephew in California who's just about 4 years old and we heard he loves it. It's his most favorite toy. And the parents say that it's a really nice piece. So we're very happy we bought it for him. |
Elyssa Loves Her First Piano

| Elyssa, my 11 month old granddaughter loves this piano. It has a true to life sound. The only negative thing I can say is that it turns over easily. She pushes on it or holds on to it to stand and it topples over. I keep it pushed back against the wall for her. Overall I am very pleased with this product. |
Excellent Toy!

| My son took an interest in my mom's piano at only a couple months of age. I searched local stores and the internet for a "real" piano. I wanted something simple: black and white keys, not electronic/battery operated, just something that resembled a real piano for my son to bang on. This fit the bill perfectly. I got my son this for Christmas and is now 5.5 months old and he loves it. It is the perfect height for him to sit and play away. I also love the bring shiny red color. It is bright, fun, gender neutral, and classic looking. When I read some of the reviews, some people were disappointed in the piano's sound. It is does not sound like a "real piano", but for a $50 toy, I did not expect it to. Real pianos cost thousands of dollars. It has the chime-like sound of a toy, but is not at all obnoxious sounding. If you are looking for a fun, classic toy, I highly recommend this piano. |
Takes a beating

| Boy can this thing take some beating on! The little guys bangs on those keys with anything in his hand. No nets, no broken notes, nothing. He tips right over, CRASH! and everything still works great. |
Cute piano - kids like it

| Reviewer: R. Eanes, Maryland Mountains |
| This piano is really, really cute - we got the red one for our 2 1/2 year old for Christmas and he loves to sit down and play with it - sometimes he'll bang, but other times he patiently plays one key at a time, just enjoying the different sounds. Seems like a very well made, very sturdy product and looks great, besides. My only problem? One key seems to be a bit out of tune! Not sure if we caused this or if it actually arrived that way since I didn't play it right away, granted, it's a kid's toy and not a recital piano, but still - it's a little diappointing to play a tune and have it not sound exactly right! Kid doesn't seem to mind, though - and it's not THAT far off! All in all, though - really nice toy - worth the money. |
A little dissapointed.

My 2 year old granddaughter walked up to this piano and was just looking at it,
she started to move it and the top came off. It looks durable, but maybe not so. |
Looks nice, doesn't sound good

| My parents bought this piano for my son's third birthday. When it arrived, one note was out of tune so I returned it - it was painful to listen to. Otherwise the piano looked nice and seemed sturdy, so I ordered the piano again. This time there were several keys that were slightly out of tune, but we thought it was good enough given it is intended for young kids. Then we discovered the song book and color strip were missing, so I had to return it again. This time I didn't bother to reorder it. The other thing I take issue with, is that Schoenhut makes a big deal about German music rods, it's long history and traditional manufacturing techniques. Their website has a section on it's factory in Florida, but the pianos are made in China and the company clearly doesn't have its quality under control. I don't have a problem buying Chinese products in general, but I think Schoenhut is misleading its customers. |
Product discription misleading

| Reviewer: Lamar, Grants Pass, Oregon |
| The piano appears to be well made upon receiving it, but what I was totally surprised to see when I opened the box was the words in big letters MADE IN CHINA. I was not very pleased with this. The product discription mentioned German steel construction, and with the name Schoenhut, I was assuming this piano was made in Germany. I have especially strong feelings about products made in China. I would not have purchaced it had I known. I'm sure many people don't feel the same way as me, but to those that do, I hope my review will help them from getting mislead like me. |
great piano - screwed up online store

The piano is awesome. But these guys tell you it is shipping, give you a delivery date and the day before it is supposed to be here - when your daughter is all psyched about her new piano - they send you an email saying "we are out of stock". Um. Didn't you say it already shipped? Jerks.
Cancelled the order and got the piano from someone else. |
